From personal touches to pre-planned experiences, this destination wedding set a welcoming tone! For Jillian Price, Catering Manager for PIER 22 Catering & Special Events it was about creating a sophisticated but comfortable space that had you feeling right at home.

"There was no detail too minor for Jane and Andrew. They had a distinct vision for their wedding day and I had a lot of fun helping bring it all together. They put a great deal of consideration into theme, decor and menu choices. I thought their hang-over kits made epic favors and it was awesome to see bits of Jane's and Andrew's personalities reflected throughout the ceremony and reception. You could tell that they're a couple of fun-loving and generous people ... and obviously, head over heels for each other!”

Every couple should remember that. While it can seem daunting, planning a wedding, it should be enjoyable, and you don't have to do it alone. Clearly, Andrew and Jane were detailed, but they also had a lot of fun with it. They hired the right people and asked the right questions, Jillian said.

"This was a very special destination wedding held at the historical PIER 22 in downtown Bradenton. They had several out of town guests and wanted to be sure their trip was easy and well thought through before the big day. Accommodations, attractions and travel, were all checked out well in advance to ensure availability and affordability.”

Pro Tip: Jillian recommends to think through flights, hotel bookings and cover all the details for your attendees before locking in a date.

Pier 22 Special Events & Catering is located on the Mantee River in Bradenton, FL.
